@shannon (for whenever you return… ) @sam-kowal
Even though he was weaker than Dragon-snapper. Tell him that I commiserate with him on that point. No one can defeat her. Unless I can figure out a way to immobilize her in a pile of glitter 😉
Oh, thanks! Stan is super pleased. He knows the pain of the rest of the world, having to submit to…

@Dragon-Snapper *buries face in hands and groans* You are evil. Urgggg….
Um, so I’m not EXACTLY sure how this works, but I’m aware that it’s supposed to be a paragraph or something. HOWEVER… I kinda got carried away, and it… Yeah. Anyway. Apologies in advance for me not doing what I’m supposed to do.

@Dekreel FINISH NARNIA. It’s worth it.
Now for Sarah’s random and incredibly obscure book recommendations:
There’s this book that no one but me has ever heard of called The Gammage Cup, by Carol Kendall, and it’s a super good, whimsical little fantasy. And this other one called Mortis, by Hannah Cobb, which is about a school of assassins and…[Read more]

I am in need of some book recommendations. Preferably fantasy, sci-fi, and historical fiction. Also something with action. I have read like half of Narnia, the Hobbit (but not the LOTR), and the first bo…[Read more]

@dekreel Here-ing.
@inkling-for-christ Ah! Nice topic! 😀
Challenge: Show
Setting: Fell off a tree
Cat watched Dog balance on the branch, wobbling then proceeding to bark every so often.
“When are you going to fall?” Cat asked, licking her paw.
Dog snarled, “You got me into this mess! Help me!”
“Don’t chase me,” Cat said.
Dog bristled, his…[Read more] -
Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Discussion for Video Seven: Negative Character Arc in the forum Discussion Questions 8 years, 8 months ago
@sleepwalkingmk Good thoughts–the records of the biblical kings in Kings and Chronicles form some really interesting case studies of Experiments in Living & Poetic Justice. You can certainly use dramatic irony like that to create catharsis; in recent storytelling, Rogue One also uses a similar narrative technique in similar fashion (albeit with…[Read more]

Justin smiled and blinked rapidly in delight as Mr. Parker honored him with the trophy. When he took it, he barely kept himself from tossing it into the air.
How’s that?

Congratulations, @aislinn-mollisong!
@that_writer_girl_99Â Let’s see……
How to Get Inspired to Write when you’re Stuck:
- Take notes. That’s the left-brained thing to do. I would take notes on the plotline and the characters’ motivations to let yourself know how exactly things are going to turn out for them, and how they react.
- Listen to…

You happened to mention that you couldn’t wait for part 2 of my course to come out. There’s danger to that. 😛
I’ve got part 2 all scripted and I just need to write the homework and then record it. I’m planning to write all the homework this week.
I don’t know what your schedule is like, but if you’re interested, I could…[Read more]

Of course! I would love that! Thank you so much!

Thanks @aislinn-mollisong,
Your email is Molly Player, right? I’ll send you the lessons tomorrow — I won’t have the homework ready for a couple days.

@devastate-lasting She fell into his arms? Why don’t I remember this?
Oh, well. The mask scene was cool enough. I don’t need an ultra-dramatic scene.

@daeus Not only did you ship Ren and Rey, but you also called Snoke cute…
I’m just gonna go melt a chair.

Daeus replied to the topic The Last Jedi in the forum Film 8 years, 8 months ago
@that_writer_girl_99 Yeah, I Renreyed (new word) the moment Ren took his helmet off.
Which isn’t really like me, but… the movie made me do it!
Btw, guys, you gotta understand that Snoke was actually really cool. Not because he was a scary villain, but because he wasn’t a scary villain. His perpetual good humor is something you almost never see…[Read more]

@That_writer_girl_99 I’m pretty sure Daeus has always shipped Rey and Kylo Ren… 😂
@Dragon-Snapper I will be back tomorrow to refute everything you just said with my irrefutable logic. Beware. *waves fork ominously*

Also a Kapeefer (especially an extroverted fangirling/boying one) regards other Kapeefers as celebrities

Then there’s one thing I couldn’t stand was that Leia was able to save herself from outer space using the force. Does everyone have the force in these new movies?
I don’t know the fine points of Star Wars, but I have heard that Leia doesn’t use the force. So reading that, I was thinking… Did someone else save her? I wonder… *wi…[Read more]
